4月 「生きる道」

Letter April "a way of life"


「野心」という言葉。「やしん」と読めば、ひそかに抱く大きな望みをあらわしますが、「のごころ」と読めば、山野を慕う人の気持ちをあらわします。


競争社会ともいわれる現代、心が疲れたら山と野にかこまれた慈眼寺へ。



― 今月の大阿闍梨のひと言 ― 


これは親からの教えですが、一度でもお世話になったというご恩は忘れてはいけないと思います。


ささやかな施しに感謝して生きる。


そんな意識を持つことで、損得のレースだけではない、生きる道が見えてきます。

 

塩沼亮潤 「くらしの塩かげん」より



The word "ambition." When read as "yashin," it represents a big, secretly held hope, but when read as "nogokoro," it represents the feelings of someone who yearns for the mountains and fields.

If you feel tired in this modern, competitive society, head to Jigenji Temple, surrounded by mountains and fields.


[ Monthly Words ]

This is something my parents taught me, but I think we should never forget the gratitude we feel for those who have taken care of us even once.

Live your life with gratitude for small acts of kindness.

With this awareness, you can see a way of life that is not just a race of profit and loss.
